Frequently Asked Questions

What is a property dispute solicitor?

A property dispute solicitor specialises in resolving legal disputes involving land and property. This includes boundary disputes, landlord and tenant disputes, TOLATA claims, adverse possession, rights of way, restrictive covenants and nuisance claims. They can advise on your legal position, negotiate on your behalf and represent you in court if necessary.

How do I resolve a property dispute?

The first step is to seek legal advice to understand your rights and the strength of your position. Many property disputes can be resolved through negotiation or mediation without going to court. If agreement cannot be reached, court proceedings may be necessary. Our property dispute solicitors will advise on the most appropriate and cost-effective approach.

How much does it cost to resolve a property dispute?

Costs depend on the complexity of the dispute and whether it proceeds to court. At PDA Law, we provide a clear written estimate before work begins. For straightforward disputes, we may be able to offer fixed fees. We will always advise on the likely costs and prospects of success before recommending court proceedings.

What is a boundary dispute?

A boundary dispute arises when neighbouring landowners disagree about the exact position of the boundary between their properties. This can involve disputes about fences, walls, hedges, driveways or rights of way. Boundary disputes can be complex and expensive to resolve — early legal advice is strongly recommended.

What is a TOLATA claim?

A TOLATA claim (under the Trusts of Land and Appointment of Trustees Act 1996) is used to resolve disputes about the ownership or occupation of property between people who are not married — typically cohabiting couples or family members who have jointly purchased property. The court can determine each party's share and order a sale if necessary.
